Roll up and read on, for your star sign’s love tarot forecast.

Aries

March 21 to April 20

Tarot cards for Aries for Valentine’s Day: Eight of Swords, Nine of Swords 

Meaning: There’s an Air sign (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) you’ve overthought your connection to and convinced yourself they’re not into you. Sometimes we all read too much into too little, and you’ve definitely done this!

The truth is that they are interested and you need to expel these false anxieties and insecurities and just chat with them, flirt a little, see what they respond to when you’re being warm and friendly (vs standoffish, which is what you’ve become recently).

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

Tarot cards for Taurus for Valentine’s Day: Ten of Wands, Ace of Wands

Meaning: A sexy, charismatic Fire sign (Leo, Aries, Sagittarius) caught your eye long ago but, for one reason or another, the connection never ignited beyond a brief spark. And yet you’ve never forgotten them, although you’ve tired of feeling like you’re chasing it or holding onto false hope.

Taurus, there is hope. The Ace of Wands shows that within the week you will get a second chance to come together, assess the chemistry and maybe, this time, ignite!

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

Tarot card for Gemini for Valentine’s Day: The Wheel of Fortune, The Hierophant

Meaning: Someone totally unexpected and not your usual type is on the cards this Valentines. They could be a Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius. This person breezes into your life very spontaneously and you’re aware of their presence because they change your mood (for the better, for the worse, maybe all at once). They are a forceful and inspiring personality, which catches your attention.

The Hierophant reveals you have an unusual power dynamic to your relationship – there might be a big age gap, or wage/career status difference, or you could even find yourselves on opposite sides in some way. The power of your attraction overrides this but it does make for an interesting and very sparky challenge. Just the way you like it tbh!

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

Tarot cards for Cancer for Valentine’s Day: Nine of Cups, Knight of Swords

Meaning: A dream-come-true lover lies in wait for you this Valentine’s, potentially another Water sign (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) and someone who is literally your ideal vision of love, a perfect match, an equal and grand prize.

The Knight of Swords wants you on the front foot with this one. Don’t be passive, don’t wait for them to find you, don’t hang back and play shy/dead! Be proactive and forthright about your attractions and intentions. Let the Universe know that you want this!

Leo

July 24 to August 23

Tarot cards for Leo for Valentine’s Day: Seven of Cups, The Sun

Meaning: Well, well, Leo! Valentine’s looks hot to trot for all the zodiac’s lions! The Seven of Cups and The Sun put you in line for either a Pisces, Leo, Scorpio or Cancer.

This person is your dream lover, the ‘one’, the soulmate connection, the person who can truly help you live your best life, a perfect partner and ally and companion and romantic passionate lover! They are successful and ambitious, they are full of vitality and life, and stand out in a crowd. They could be from overseas or have global connections/businesses.

Be ready to be swept off your feet! And look out for people in places you feel warm or that are beautifully lit – especially by flame.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Tarot cards for Virgo for Valentine’s Day: Justice, Temperance

Meaning: Two major arcana cards which means this Valentine’s is significant and powerful for you and your love life future. Justice brings a Libra, or someone directly connected to justice in their work, into your realm. Their intelligence and steadfastness attract you. Their ability to see all sides and weigh the odds fully and fairly is like catnip to your Virgo mentality!

Temperance shows they’re not your usual ‘type’ but that’s okay. We all change, grow, develop, and so do our tastes and needs. Don’t let this one pass you by.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Tarot cards for Libra for Valentine’s Day: King of Coins, Knight of Coins

Meaning: Keep your eyes open at work, in the bank, the gym or a clinic of some type, and around any DIY or home improvement places or appointments! An Earth sign is coming your way – Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo – and you will meet over something practical and linked to one of those spots.

They are slightly older. They have wealth, experience, clarity about their life, and they want to commit. They think you’re wonderful. This could go places…

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Tarot cards for Scorpio for Valentine’s Day: Five of Swords, Ten of Coins

Meaning: Ready to meet ‘the one’? Hope so, because it’s possible this Valentine’s. And it won’t be who you think or what you expect, but the Ten of Coins hints a happy-ever-after is brewing for you.

Look out for Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) who really p*** you off! This will start with sparks but you will at least truly notice each other… and after the issue has died down, what’s left will be attraction. I’d suggest you act on it, this could be big!

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

Tarot cards for Sagittarius for Valentine’s Day: The Chariot, Seven of Wands

Meaning: A kindred spirit will cross your path, quite literally, while you’re commuting/travelling/journeying/holidaying/moving. The Chariot suggests a Cancerian wanderer will bump into you and you will immediately connect over your passion for exploration, discovery and adventure.

The Seven of Wands hints that there is a whiff of secrecy about this liaison, dare I suggest one or the other of you isn’t entirely single? Well, love is complicated. Sometimes the timing is bad but the bond is right, and you’ll just have to figure it out.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 21

Tarot cards for Capricorn for Valentine’s Day: Ace of Cups, King of Cups

Meaning: Ah, true love, Cap! Cupid is coming for you – look out for the love arrow! Ace of Cups is an instant attraction, a love at first sight vibe… and the King of Cups is a happy-ever-after soul connection, true and loyalty.

Water signs are highly likely here – Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces. And maybe water is a key theme for this meet-up – places beside a body of water or maybe even with a watery name!

Aquarius

January 22 to February 19

Tarot cards for Aquarius for Valentine’s Day: Seven of Swords, Six of Coins

Meaning: Drama incoming! An Air or Earth sign (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius, Capricorn, Taurus or Virgo) who you really shouldn’t be dallying with will turn up the heat and perhaps prove to be irresistible to you. They may be an existing friend or connected to your friendship group.

There’s a reason this has to remain secretive and maybe it’s not altogether ‘right’. But you’re a truthful and kind person so you will figure out how to progress in the right way.

Pisces

February 20 to March 20

Tarot cards for Pisces for Valentine’s Day: The Devil, The Empress

Meaning: Difficult roads can lead to beautiful places, Pisces, and this Valentine’s will see a highly sexually charged attraction, possibly with a worldly Capricorn, kind of burn your fingers a little.

But then, in time (by June), it could blossom into true and lasting love with The Empress. This card also indicates fertility, so bear that in mind (depending on what you’re looking for at this life stage).

This love connection is authentic, powerful, game changing, and tinged with intrigue as you’re not really each other’s usual ‘type’, but the attraction is raw and real.
